A Perfectly Reasonable Amount of Schadenfreude about Things Happening to Trump & His Enablers (Part 3)

But you’re not helping…Why is that?

The Republicans cut the funding for turtle-flipping.

You wouldn’t believe the number of alien turtles were getting flipped because of that funding.

[Pardel-Lux]

All turtles are alien all the way down.

Schadenfreude IS decreasing faster than expected. My extensive data analysis from Post #12 noted this thread should last 310 days to 11/26/25. No way in hell that’s going to happen.

@dougrb

Just a fun fact…

Part 1 lasted 916 days
Part 2 lasted 613
Extrapolating, Part 3 should last 310 (11/26/25).
Extrapolating some more, Part 4 will only last 3 days after that. That’s the point when the 10K post limit is hit in zero time. The Schadenfreude singularity.

That’s assuming that the progression is subtractive. If it’s multiplicative, we can expect 410 days, which would be 3/6/26. Not saying that’s very likely, but…

And the fact that Emperor Donald I is currently ruling, there’s less schadenfreude happening because he’s in power. Which saddens me.

The turtle lays on his back, his belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping…Why is that?

Mitch hit the Deck, ‘ard.

That floor looks smooth and shiny. I think he stepped wrong and his foot slipped, I don’t think he had a fainting spell or anything.

Right before Mitch fell, somebody asked him about ICE’s illegal activities.

McConnell would rather take a dive than have to defend the Trump regime.

@Atamasama

At least someone is dressing him in as safe a footwear as possible.

Huh. Apparently there is a bottom for Trump nominees. Who knew?

@Elendil_s_Heir

There is no bottom for Trump nominees, just a temporary local minima. They will soon drop lower; this guy is just this year’s Matt Gaetz. Had Gaetz still been a candidate in this Year of the Epstein Files, he’d have been golden.

@Horatius

It seems a lot of it depends on just how hated you are by the other Republicans. They will put up with some level of hate just to get their way. But Gaetz was super hated by nearly everyone and this guy must be, too.

[Atamasama]

@aurora_maire

But Gaetz was super hated by nearly everyone and this guy must be, too.

Yeah, the Gaetz thing, as far as I can tell, that wasn’t a political matter or an ethical matter. The guy was just a creep and it seemed like all of his colleagues had some personal horror story about him to relate. Going around the House floor, showing creepy photos and videos to people who had no interest in it, saying disgusting things that made people cringe. I wouldn’t doubt this other guy is the same.

[Spoons]

If you can, catch the Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight. It kicks off with a great parody of “Ballroom Blitz,” and of course, it is about Trump’s ballroom.

It’s, it’s, a ballroom grift …

Yep, I laughed out loud.

[not_what_you_d_expect]

I watched it, it was great.

I have no doubt that trump will build something like the Buckingham Palace for the trump clan to inhabit for a very long time. Someday a populace may rise up to tear down this horrible monstrosity. But I’ll be dead. I may be dead before it’s even finished, if I’m lucky.

Fucking Sham Palace

Well done!

This is not a surprise, other than someone actually did a study on it:

Elon Musk’s politics cost Tesla over 1 million sales in US alone, new study...

The study, titled “The Musk Partisan Effect on Tesla Sales,” argues that without this effect, Tesla’s sales would have been 67% to 83% higher between October 2022 and April 2025.

[Gatopescado]

I skimmed the article, but didn’t see a dollar figure estimate of what a “million vehicle sales” equates to. That’s gotta be a big number. What’s an average Tesla sell for?

Anybody smarter than me wanna lay down a figure?
